The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
In the context of .Net, if you have to spin up a Linux partition to run Mono, might as well plug in a cheap Windows server to run ASP.Net.
We have used both Windows and Linux servers as front end or back end processors for iSeries workloads for quite a few years. It works quite nicely when you have a workload that OS/400 doesn't handle well such as run Jasper Reports really fast.
Although I do have to say with the 32-bit JVM, OS/400 running Java is reaching parity when architected right.

I agree. The current situation works well, but just makes it easier
to run existing AIX software. For a real change to happen, more is needed.
Well, it's quiet easy to set up a Linux partition. It's no different than having a Linux machine on your network. Sure, it's not quite as convenient as being able to fire up a PASE job with an RPG call, but as long as you have a decent communications infrastructure it's just as good.
